The Holy Bible in Persian (Farsi), includes theOld and New Testamentfrom theNew Millennium Translation. 2014 edition.Leather cover (Full Grain Buttero) inblack, with gilded pages,two ribbon bookmarks.
The New Millennium Persian Translation of the Bible is a completely new translation based on the original Greek and Hebrew texts. It should not be regarded as a revised version of the older Persian Bible. From the very beginning, our goal has been to produce a standard translation of the Holy Scriptures—one suitable for study, teaching, preaching, worship, and other uses. This Persian translation aims to combine accuracy and faithfulness to the original text with beautiful, elevated, yet clear and accessible language.
Another purpose of this translation has been to provide a foundation for future translations of the Bible into other Iranian languages and local dialects. The New Millennium Persian Translation may be considered somewhat comparable to the English Standard Version (ESV), though it was not translated from the ESV itself; rather, the ESV served as a model and reference for translation style and approach.
In preparing this translation, great care has been taken to preserve the precise meaning of the biblical text while remaining as faithful as possible to the original and minimizing interpretive additions. Attention has also been given to the literary and poetic qualities of the Bible. For example, in the poetic sections, every effort has been made to convey the rhythm and beauty of the original language to Persian readers—something that is especially evident in the translation of Psalms, Proverbs, and the Prophets.
